Now do the same comparison between R-24R and 10.7 radar missiles.

Saying that MLD shouldnt see Hornet because AIM-7M/P is better than R-24R can also be used for matchup of AIM-7M/Ps vs R-27ER.
lol, F-15A has AIM-7M and fight against R-27ERs, and it doesn’t suck, its a very good plane for 13.0
Its also much faster than Hornet, has AIM-9Ms and most importantly 240x CMs IIRC
as i said: if 18A gets AIM-9M it can go to 12.7 or 13.0.
and speed isn’t very important, dude. u aren’t going to be flighting at 2300km/h all the match, and good TWR like the hornet is very important

if it gets radar buffs and AIM-9M it can go to 13.0
By that logic F-104A/C could go lower than they currently are, since all they have is speed and as you said that isnt important.
Dont know what would that entail.
C early? Maybe.
A? Debatable. Even with AIM-9Ms it wouldnt be in the same ballpark as F-15A
ur logic is worst than me.
in toptier speed isn’t important, if u can go mach 1/1.5 u’re an acceptable aircraft
the F-104 is very good in his br
So speed IS important after all. Gotchu.
not in 10.7
Because?
srry, in toptier isn’t important, not in 11.7.
my error XD
No problem mate but you still need to elaborate as to why speed isnt important.
cuz u don’t need to reach mach 2 to be an acceptable aircraft, dude.
if u have good radar, good missiles, good TWR and good maneuverability, u’re god in matches.
the hornet could be slow in speed, but has good TWR and good missiles (maybe not that good, but at least long-range missile) and its very good

did u saw any plane going mach +1.2?
like mach 1.75 or mach 2?
no, cuz if u go too fast, u’re a fucking brick and u can’t notch missiles or even turn
By that logic F-18C late/finish F-18C should be as dominant in matches as F-15E.
But from the graphs from statshark posted by someone earlier, its not.
Speed gives your missiles extra range and, well, speed, which is important for long range shots. Faster plane in defensive is also harder to intercept by missiles.
I regularly do when i feel like spamming amraams with EFT.
what about when an enemy launches a Fox-3 in front of u? going at that speeds means u can’t turn
and if u want to launch a missile to an enemy that isn’t straightly in front of u?
